Talk, Truth, Tea: Why does Yoda talk backwards?

HOLLYWOOD, CA– Ever wonder why Yoda talks backwards? Well George Lucas just answered that age-old question. Most of us know that Yoda has a unique way of speaking. Lucas made the revelation during the “TCM Film Festival”. He says that if the character spoke in regular English, most people wouldn’t pay attention to what was being said. But, if he spoke with an accent or it was difficult to understand what he was saying, people would tend to tune in more. So for all of you wondering why … know now, you.
